Cub trying to decide if it wants to climb the tree. Bears are chances of seeing one when your in the Smokies is good. They should be respected but not feared. There has only been one case in the history of the park that a bear killed someone and it is highly questionable. They are usually far more afraid of people than people are afraid of them. Being able to see such a wonderful animal in the wild is a pure pleasure as far as we are concerned.
